PhDCS students enter the program usually with PhD scholarships from national or international funding agencies. There are two ways to obtain scholarships for this program:
through individual applications to national (namely the Portuguese national funding agency for science, research and technology, FCT) and international (often within Marie Curie programs) funding agencies;
through applications to a specific study plan that directly launches a call for applications.
The PhDCS currently has two specific scholarship-specific training paths supported by the Portuguese national funding agency for science, research and technology, FCT:
PhD program in Applied Health Sciences (PhDiHES) - 240 ECTS - which has specific funding for 2015-2011 (applications in 2015/2016, 2016/2017, 2017/2018 and 2018/2019). Further information is available
